This patch has no long commit message at all, and it seems to do
something with "libgcov-dev" which I wouldn't have guessed from the
terse summary in the subject line.  Can you add some more commentary
about what is going on with that?

Please see the guidance on the wiki:

http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Commit_Patch_Message_Guidelines#Patch_Headers_and_Commit_Messages

which is quite explicit that "[i]t is not acceptable to have an empty or
non-existent header, or just a single line message. The summary and
description is required for all changes."

thanks
